Donnie Darko
Mar 29th
“28 days… 6 hours… 42 minutes… 12 seconds. That… is when the world… will end” – Frank
Frank scared me big time and still does! The scene when Donnie meets Frank in the cinema still haunts me…Why do you wear that stupid bunny suit?…Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?
One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest
Mar 26th
This film was only the second film ever to win all five major Academy Awards (Best Picture, Actor in Lead Role, Actress in Lead Role, Director, and Screenplay) and believe me it deserves every one.
This is Jack Nicholson’s finest performance ever – this film is in my top 3!
Jacob’s Ladder
Mar 23rd
Tim Robbins is superb in this truly scary film about Jacob, a Vietnam vet who starts to ’see things’ – a fantastic film.
The Usual Suspects
Mar 19th
“The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist…...and like that, he’s gone!” – Verbal Kint
I remember when I first watched this film it was amazing – I watched it again straight after, you had to (It is a bit like ‘The Sixth Sense’) and even when you already know the (perfect) twist at the end you still want to watch it again!!
Twin Peaks : Fire Walk With Me
Feb 28th
Twin Peaks introduced me into the twisted world of director David Lynch. I can honestly say that the series and the the film prequel to the series (‘Fire walk with me’) scared me like nothing else I have seen. The plot is (as with most of Lynch’s work) complex, with characters to match (the ‘log lady’ and the hyper scary ‘Bob’ to name just two) and the music is just incredible.
